Secret Tips To Doing WDW

April 5, 2021 By Tony Caselnova

There’s a ton of fantastic information available to you, between Facebook Groups and friends, and each one offers great tips and tricks to help make your trip to WDW more Magical. But here are some additional things to take into consideration. Okay, so maybe these aren’t “Secret” tips, but they are less talked about and easily overlooked!

 

~Save Packing Space~

Shampoo, Conditioner, and Body Wash

 

Does anyone else pack their entire wardrobe… or just me? Save some space when packing and leave the shower things at home. Shampoo, Conditioner, and Body Wash are provided for you, which can save some precious luggage space for those new Ears!

 

 

~Break Them In~

Break in Your Shoes Before You Go!

 

You’ll be walking between 5 and 10 miles per day on average, so be kind to your feet. Sure those new shiny sandals look amazing, but it’s going to get old (and painful)… quick. I highly recommend wearing your most comfortable sneakers and get them well in advance of your trip so you have time to break them in. The great thing about a WDW Vacation is, there’s no need for a fashion show. You don’t want to miss out on anything because sore feet or blisters came along on your trip too!
~Know BEFORE You Go~
Things are changing every single day. We are seeing things reopen, protocols changing, different experiences coming available. If you happen to use a Travel Agent (like our friends at Destinations To Travel ), they will keep you up to date and on top of what you need to know. If you’re a self planner, be sure to check the website or your MDE App for the most up to date information!
~Double Screen~

Screen Your Skin AND Lips!

Most of us remember to apply sunscreen – and if this is something that may have slipped your mind, here’s your reminder! The Florida sun is no joke. Apply Sunscreen and apply it OFTEN. While keeping it on our body is important, here’s something many of us can forget… SCREEN YOUR LIPS! Make sure you use a lip balm with SPF and apply that often as well. Sunburn, whether it’s on your body or lips, can bring about as much fun to the party as those blisters we talked about earlier!

Solo Trips to WDW

March 22, 2021 By Tony Caselnova

Have you ever considered taking a solo trip to WDW? Have you ever done a solo trip to WDW? If not, let’s consider why you would ever think about it, and why it’s an amazing way to experience the Happiest Place on Earth!

 

Why Not?

~ Why? ~

For many who haven’t experienced a trip to WDW alone, a common question is “why would you”? Well, that may have a different answer for each person. Maybe your family isn’t as “Disney Crazy” (let’s call it passionate instead of crazy) as you are. Maybe you need a bit of time away from the real world. Whatever the answer is for you, I can promise that it may very well be the most INCREDIBLE experience you could ever hope for!

 

Treat Yourself To A Deluxe Experience

~Treat Yourself~

If you’re used to traveling with family, most of us have to be a little tighter with our budget. Now is the time to indulge! While you can’t go wrong with a fun stay at POP Century, or be immersed in Disney magic at any of the Value resorts, why not splurge and spring for a visit to a Deluxe Resort? With only one person to please, is it even possible to go wrong!?

 

What’s For Dinner?

~Easy Meal Choices~

There are dining options aplenty all over WDW. And most families have to take special consideration as to where they may choose to make dining reservations… does it have something the kids will eat, is there something for everyone to enjoy, is the price right? When it’s just you, the choices are limitless. With only one person to please, take the time and maybe even enjoy that Signature Dining experience you never had the chance to try before (and – bonus… you don’t have to share!).

 

Living The Solo Life

~ Living Your Happiest Life~

You know the feeling of trying to keep every member of your party happy… yeah, that one. We try, but it is one truth that carries over from the real world. You can’t keep everyone happy all the time.  One of the most perfect moments is the one you are enjoying. Rope Drop and close the park. Sleep in and leave early. Take a nap in the middle of the day, or ride Flight of Passage 5 times in a row. It’s a lot of fun to please 1 person, and there’s no wrong choice!

 

Relax by the Koi Pond during a visit to Epcot

 

~What Do I Need To Know~

Even the most seasoned WDW visitor can be a little thrown off by planning their first Solo Trip. It is as easy (or easier) as planning for your family. Choose your favorite resort, and whichever dates you want to go. Make your park reservations as soon as you book and ADRs 60 days out. If you like the idea of still having a Disney BFF in your corner, reach out to our friends at Destinations to Travel (and you’ll never feel alone throughout the whole process) Keep an open mind, let your imagination soar, and let yourself enjoy the Most Magical Place On Earth!
